• TRAINING VIA GARMIN CONNECT — Rouvy Ride

    I do this so that when I am in an event and have to make decisions, I can be as most prepared as possible to read my body despite all the things beyond my control.

  • TRAINING VIA GARMIN CONNECT — Running

    I am determined to change the way I breathe while running. I am striving to be more mindful about where I am and that I am not overdoing it coming back. I need to consciously stay within myself, especially with about 50 miles of cycling on my legs in the last two days. I strive to stay present enough to appreciate the weather and the simple breeze the crisp coolness of 32° F.

  • A pleasant recognition – solitude, reflection, gratitude

    If I was to sum up the single biggest problem of senior leadership in the Information Age, it’s a lack of reflection. “Solitude allows you to reflect while others are reacting.

You have some external stimulus, then you go back to your experience, your education, and you see what needs to be done.
